THE HUN HAS STRUCK -
THE HUN‘ has struck in his loudly heralded offensive. The
greatest battle in the world’s history is now in progress on the
battle-scarred fields of France and the world awaits the issue.
While the enemy’s blow has brought with it a certain feeling of
uneasiness and the first news of the first stages of the battle have
been far from comforting, a note of optimism and confidence
seems to prevail thruout the allied countries. The determination
‘ to carry defeat to the German military machine is as strong as ever
‘ and the majority of the American people believe as does General
Pershing that it is heresy to think that the Germans cannot be
beaten.
The greatest battle in history is driving home to the American
people the fact that the war is not yet won nor can it be won
until America can throw its strength into the conflict. The great,
gray masses which have been beating on the western front since
last Thursday should prove an object lesson to every American
citizen. He should realize now as never before that the power
of Germany’s war lords must be broken; the Hun must be de
feated and America has got to do it.
It’s a big job and the best way to start is to rid ourselves
of all those influences which pull backward instead of forward and
put ourselves on an efficient war basis. The great offensive
shouldn’t dishearten or. discourage us, but should stimulate us—
spur us to greater efforts and more persistent activity.

SAVING DAYLIGHT
BEGINNING next Monday we are going to have a chance to
put to a practical test the truth of the old adage, “Early to
bed and early to rise makes men healthy, wealthy and wise.”
That is we are going to have the chance if we go to bed and get
5 up with the clock and not follow our present habits. Turning
the clock ahead an hour will make but little difference unless we
. also turn ahead the daily s¢hedule of our activities.
For a while we shall doubtless be tempted to call the clock a
liar when it signals the hour of our customary bedtime or jingles
the morning alarm. If we are really going to save any daylight
under the new plan we must accept the clock’s dictates as military
orders and plan our work and play accordingly. It is to be hoped
that the old time tables of our daily life will be left unchanged and
that we will work by the clock. Ltpiay come a little awkward at
first, but in a few weeks we will be wandering how we ever managed
to lie abed until six when we might have gotten up at five.
The new plan should be a great impetus to that new industry
known as war gardening. With supper over and the dishes wiped
by six o’clock there will be from him to three working daylight
lhours left for close communion with the weeds that grow between
the rows. If we get too far ahead of the weeds we can go fishing
Inn nvenintz or two until the weeds catch up.

FOOD
FOOD ENOUGH to supply 16,000,000 men yearly was shipped
from the United States to the Allies since the beginning of the
war up to last January first. Russia received less than one per cent
of the total, and Great Britain more than half, or enough to feed
about 8,000,000 men. France received enough for 4,200,000 men
and Italy sufficient for more than 2,000,000 men. ‘
The total exports of wheat and wheat flour to Great Britain,
France and Italy amounted to $384,000,000 bushels, or an average
-'-' of 110,000,000 bushels per'year. Exports of pork and pork pro
ducts totaled almost 2,000,000 pounds, while sugar showed a
yearly average of 648,000,000 pounds. Oats exports for the three
and one-half years totaled 212,751,000 bushels; corn, 24,310,000
bushels, and rye, 3,618,000 bushels. -

HE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT REPORT on live animals on
Tfarms should serve to dispel the heretofore popular belief that
animals on farms were decreasing in number and especially meat
animals. During 1917 meat cattle on farms increased by 1,857
thousand, sheep by 1,284 thousand and swine by 3,871 thousand.
The milk producers also will be campelled to revise their figures
‘ after the government report that the number of milk cows on farms
increased by 390 thousand during the past year. '

THE OIL INDUSTRY in California for the year 1917 exper
ienced an active field development coupled with an alarming
decline in storage. The daily production amounted to only about
90 per cent of the consumption. The increased ponsumpfion re
flects the general industrial activity of the Pacific Coast but con
fronts the oil industry with the problem of supplying the other
dependent industries from a continually diminishing store.

There are now more than 6600 Maxwell trucks in use.
They will do everything a 5-ton truck will do except
haul 5 tons at one load.
Big trucks spend more gas hauling themselves than
the Maxwell uses at peak load.
How well those Maxwells have done their work is
shown by a service record of 99.6% perfect—the great
est record ever made by a motor-driven vehicle.
S4OO less than any other truck of similar capacity
in the world.
